this pride month, please remember that every corporation that puts rainbows on its logo or tweets a hashtag does not care about equal rights or our suffering, they care about profit and public image and the only reason they like rainbows is good PR

of course it is fine to feel validated or uplifted by it, and may help a tiny bit as far as ‘normalizing’ goes, but keep in mind that every one of these these multi-million or -billion dollar companies are using ‘equal rights’ and mainstream media’s delight in sensationalizing lgbt stories as free advertising for themselves

it is not progress so much as the wolf putting on sheep’s clothing as a marketing ploy. it is the same old capitalist state that has stepped on us for decades, and if it would benefit them more to publicly attack us, they would be doing it.
